Tips on How to Use Your Printer
If the printer is used or transported vertically or slanted, the printer may become damaged or ink
may leak from the printer.
Be sure not to use or transport the printer vertically or slanted.
Tip!: Do not place any object on the Top Cover!
Do not place any object on the Top Cover. It will fall into the Rear Tray when the Top Cover is open
and cause the printer to malfunction.
Also, place the printer where objects will not fall on it.
Tip!: Carefully choose the area to place the printer!
Place the printer at least 5.91 inches / 15 cm away from other electrical appliances such as
fluorescent lamps. If the printer is placed closer to those, it may not be able to work properly due to
fluorescent noises.
How to maintain the optimal printing quality?
The key to printing with the optimal printing quality is to prevent the Print Head from drying or clogging.
Always follow the following steps for optimal printing quality.
Follow the procedure below to disconnect the power plug.
1. Press the Power button on the printer to turn it off.
2. Make sure that the Power lamp is not lit.
3. Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet, or turn off the extender cable connector.
If you press the Power button to turn off the power, the printer caps the Print Head (nozzles)
automatically to prevent from drying. If you disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet or turn
off the extender cable connector before the Power lamp is turned off, the Print Head will not be
capped properly and this will cause drying or clogging.
To unplug the power cord, be sure to follow this procedure.
Print periodically!
Just as the tip of a felt pen becomes dry and unusable if it has not been used for a long time,
even if it is capped, the Print Head too, may become dried or clogged if the printer has not been
used for a long time.
We recommend the printer to be used at least once a month.
